You'd surely know her, if you stopped to think, for Mother always said she looks like Mona Lisa and you'd notice Mona Lisa if you saw her. Even if she did have on a sailor suit too big for her, and a funny soup-bowl hat. Only perhaps she doesn't wear such things now. It's two years since I saw her, almost, that is, and I don't know how she dresses. "Aunt Clara!
Have you brought anything home for me to make it of, that you ask for soup?" "Give me the soup-bowl," said the Khoja. Then taking the empty bowl in his hand he returned to the students. "O Effendis!" said he, "be good enough, I beseech you, to take the will for the deed.
"Verily, Father, you are too good to us," said Muriel gratefully. "And I will try to thank you, Father," added Agnes, "when I get back my senses, and can find out whether I am on my head or my heels." The Bishop and his chaplain laughed; and Agnes, recalled to her duties by seeing the soup-bowl empty, jumped up and took down the spit on which a chicken was roasting at the fire.
And of course, yes, she did forget to enclose the postal. It's a wonder she didn't cable. Now here am I, exhorted to meet three German people of whom I know these facts: Professor Lange of Berlin, the Frau Professor and their daughter Frieda, who looks like Mona Lisa and perhaps wears sailor suits too large for her and a funny soup-bowl hat.
"Where's the Boy's sled?" said the Colonel, coming in hurriedly. "We cached it," answered Potts feebly. "Couldn't even bring his sled home! Where've you cached it?" "It's all right only a few miles back." Potts relinquished the empty soup-bowl, and closed his eyes.
The table was covered with a gloomy cloth, an embroidered towel serving as a napkin, and on the table, in vieux-saxe, stood a soup-bowl with a broken handle, filled with potato soup and containing the same rooster that he had seen carried into the house on his arrival.
The reason they were served at the east side, was because he had gone east. Before removing the food, she always lifted the cover of the little soup-bowl to see if there was vapor upon its lacquered inside surface. For it is said that if there be vapor on the inside of the lid covering food so offered, the absent beloved is well.
"Never!" cried Gamelin, who was genuinely oblivious. After clearing one end of the deal table of the papers and books, brushes and chalks that littered it, the citoyenne laid out on it the earthenware soup-bowl, two tin porringers, two iron forks, the loaf of brown bread and a jug of thin wine. Mother and son ate the soup in silence and finished their meal with a small scrap of bacon.
It was a pitiful but beautiful little scene. Now the British candidates march up one by one for their medals, hale, hearty men, brown and fit. There is a smart young officer of Scottish Rifles; and then a selection of Worcesters, Welsh Fusiliers and Scots Fusiliers, with one funny little Highlander, a tiny figure with a soup-bowl helmet, a grinning boy's face beneath it, and a bedraggled uniform.
Their Mother was already serving their Father's breakfast to him in the next room. By and by she and Grandmother would have their breakfast with the servants. This is a picture of the Twins eating their breakfast. They each had a tiny table of red lacquered wood. On each table were two bowls. In one bowl was soup, and in the other rice. Taro took up his soup-bowl with both hands.
